Campbell's Soup BPA levels 'unsafe'

Some of the soup made by iconic manufacturer Campbell's has been found to contain higher Bisphenol A (BPA) levels than US federal guidelines deem as safe.

The brand, which was given instant kudos when it was immortalised by artist Andy Warhol, is under pressure to look at chemicals used in the soup's production.

A test of canned soups in the December issue of Consumer Reports found levels of the chemical BPA in brands such as Campbell's and Progresso were double the limit set by federal guidelines.

BPA is used in clear plastic bottles and food-can liners.

It has been restricted in Canada and some US states because of potential health effects which has prompted the Food and Drug Administration to look at what it thinks are safe levels of exposure to it.

The highest levels of BPA in the study were found in the canned green beans and canned soup.

Canned Del Monte Fresh Cut Green Beans Blue Lake had the highest BPA levels for a single sample.
